Turnover Spark
In Thursday’s press conference, head coach Todd Bowles said the lack of takeaways is his biggest concern for the defense. Entering Week 7, the Jets have totaled just four takeaways.
“We have got to get our hands on more balls, where there are tipped passes, turnovers, anything,” Bowles said. “Last year we got a bunch of turnovers. This year, we haven’t gotten them yet.”
They Come in Bunches
Through six games, the defense has forced only three turnovers — two interceptions (Marcus Williams) and one fumble recovery (Sheldon Richardson).
